You know, as much as I loathe having Bill Schroeder and "the prep school putz" (Brian Anderson) as our coverage team, BA actually said something insightful - that managers invoke a 7.13 request so it will be a CC review instead of a challenge, thus, they aren't charged if result is not in their favor.

I think that needs to be cleaned up more than anything. That if a manager comes out, it's a challenge, no ifs ands or buts about it. If the plate umpire or a second umpire (who would have the best alternative position? U3? U1?) feels that a 7.13 violation was possible during the action, _then_ the CC induces a review, but like a "did he swing" call, if the plate umpire judges no 7.13 violation happened, then that's the way it is.
